A Carrera by any other name …

April 2006


The Carrera 360 Rose Gold Limted Edition is an 18 carat gold watch that comes with a ‘chocolate-brown’ guilloché dial with hand-applied 18 carat rose gold hands and indices, a matching hand-sewn alligator strap, sapphire crystals front and back – where the specially engraved oscillating weight bearing the movement’s name and Côtes de Genève decoration can be admired.
The creation of this timepiece required the three exclusive worldwide patents:
1: 1/100th of a second display on a mechanical wrist chronograph;
2. Bi-directional crown and rewind system: the single crown controls the automatic watch and the mechanical chronograph, as well as the watch’s hour and date setting. When turned counter-clockwise, it rewinds the automatic watch and when turned clockwise, it rewinds the manual chronograph;
3. Transmission of the date from the bottom of the movement to the upper dial.
